Once phpMyAdmin is installed, it's best to deny access to the /phpmyadmin path from the internet as many automated scripts will be scanning your web server for potential routes into your system. I've seen this activity hitting my servers as soon as they are publicly available.

Lock down phpMyAdmin connections to allow from 127.0.0.1 only - we will use an SSH tunnel to connect.
